Hope ~ Battle of the Creative Teams Layout #3

This week's challenge was a numbered challenge. Our team had to pick what was on our list ~ much harder than it sounds as it took us a few days to collaborate and agree to the list. WE all have different scrapping styles and have our little favorite embellies we like to use. In addition, our team chose VIRTUES as an additional theme to using the list. I chose HOPE for my page.

Our team's numbered list:

1 font
2 strings
3 photos
4 papers
5 alphas
6 buttons
7 ribbons
8 doodles
9 leaves
10 flowers

And my page:

SPEED SCRAP @ FUNKY PLAYGROUND

OK fellow scrappers, there's a Speed Scrap this weekend, August 1st, at 9 pm EST/8 pm CST, at The Funky Playground!

If you've never attended a Speed Scrap ~ well, the basics are that you get instructions every 10 minutes for an hour, during which time you are slowly building your layout. You are then given a final hour to complete your page and upload it to the gallery and link back to the Speed Scrap thread in the forum. There are some cool prizes for the Speed Scrap, fun chatter, and you get a layout completed.

Come check it out! Image is linked to the site.

WooT! WooT!

I am so blessed! My layout "I Love Being With You" made the DST GSO! Check it out here: DST GSO 7/27/09.
